    The November 2023 update added “never combined” mode on the taskbar for Windows 11. To find this feature, go to Settings > Personalization > Taskbar > Taskbar behaviors. Set Combine taskbar buttons and hide labels to Never. It also added a separate setting for turning this feature on for other taskbars when you use multiple monitors.

I totally agree with this post, but want to point out that NOT COMBINING taskbar buttons was NOT a feature. It was the default. The ability to combine the buttons is the "feature". Microsoft should have looked at their own data to see that power users DO NOT COMBINE.

That's such a good way of framing it - quite right.
